I. Solid phase synthesis Synthesis on solid (polymer) support
Why should you care about solid-phase synthesis ? Even if it were the case that the only successful solid-phase chemistries ever performed were the synthesis of oligopeptides and oligonucleotides, it would be difficult to overstate their importance. These advances created entire new areas of research, and have served as the underpinning for almost all modern biochemistry and molecular biology.
Two other primary reasons for caring about solid-phase synthesis: Its interesting!
It served as the basis for much of the early efforts in combinatorial chemistry.
A little history of solid-phase synthesis
1960's: Solid-phase peptide and oligonucleotide synthesis get started.
1970's: Continued development of solid-phase peptide and oligo synthesis, including the development of effective apparati for automated synthesis.
1980's: Peptide chemists and biologists get interested in figuring out how to make truly huge numbers of peptides (and screen them for biological activity). This leads to the development of the firs first combinatorial libraries.
1970's: Synthetic organic chemists begin to explore solid-phase organic synthesis. While interesting, no compelling case is made for actually bothering to do organic chemistry on solid support, and by 1980 most efforts have stagnated. 1980's (late): Interest in solid-phase organic synthesis is renewed, in both academia and the pharmaceutical industry. Adaptation of "modern" synthetic reactions to the solid-phase begins.
1990's: Continued improvements in the rate at which potential drug candidates can be screened (high-throughput screening) lead virtually every major pharmaceutical company to delve into the combinatorial combinato synthesis of non-peptide, non-oligonucleotide pharmacophores.
Bruce Merrifield 1984 Nobel Prize in Chemistry Born July 21, 1921
Benefits often associated with solid-phase synthesis
• Minimized Solubility Problems
• Simplified Purification • Improved Reaction Yields • Simplified Manipulation of Small Molar Quantities • Site Isolation
Why Use Solid Phase Synthesis? Purification of compounds bound to the solid support from those in solution is accomplished by simple filtration This allows the use of a large excess of reagents, improving the efficiency of many transformations The solid support can be used to compartmentalize library members, permitting the use of split-pool synthesis

Effects of Crosslinking •
Cross-Linking imparts mechanical stability and improved diffusion and swelling properties to the resin
Without cross-linking, each polymer chain can dissolve under thermodynamically favored conditions
Cross-linking can induce some sites of ‘permanent entanglement’ maintaining structural integrity

Practical Considerations in Choosing a Solid Support • • • •
Mode of attachment and cleavage of materials from the resin (linker) Compatibility of the chemistry planned for the library synthesis The amount of material desired (loading level) Size - affects efficiency of diffusion within the polymer (reaction rates!)
90 μm (TentaGel) 0.75 mmol/ g 350 pmol/ bead Ca. 180 ng/ bead
500 μm (PS) 1.05 mmol/ g 60 nmol/ bead Ca. 30 μg/ bead
200 μm (PS) 1.05 mmol/ g 4 nmol/ bead Ca. 2 μg/ bead
Diffusion Efficiency
2. Linkers • •

Automated DNA synthesis
First nucleotide in DNA synthesis
Automated DNA synthesis Each nucleotide addition requires four steps 1. Detritylation 2. Activation and Coupling 3. Capping 4. Oxidation Repeat steps for next nucleotide
Phosphoramidite
Detritylation The dimethoxy-trityl protecting group of the 5´-OH group needs to be removed, so that the next base can be added. Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) is used as reagent for cleavage.
Activation and coupling Protonation activates the leaving group
Activation and coupling
Capping To prevent uncoupled nucleotides from reacting in the next step, which leads to wrong sequence
Oxidation

*Only customers with accounts in good standing are eligible for this scale. All orders at the 100 nmole scale must be placed using our special order form in Microsoft Excel format, please e-mail us your request. 100 nmole (0.1 micromole) synthesis scale will yield typically 0.040-0.150 micromole (40-150 nmole) final product for a regular size, standard purity oligo. Guaranteed minimum 40 nmole for regular size (up to 25-mer) oligos, standard purity (desalted). For longer oligos, 9 OD260 guaranteed minimum (standard purity). Standard purity includes free desalting. All oligos are quantified and three different units of measure are provided to the customer. The relation between these three units is calculated by a computer, but as an approximation for a 20 base long oligo, 50 nmole equals approx. 10 OD260 units or 300 microgram. **Oligos longer than 35 bases, which are ordered without additional purification, will be supplied with no replacement warranty.

Advantages Compared to solution phase chemistry
Easy workup / can be automated
Toxic or volatile reagents can be immobilized
Two incompatible reagents can be used at the same time (’wolf and lamb’)
Excess reagent can be used
